How GOOD was Purugly ACTUALLY? - History of Purugly in Competitive Pokemon

[@zacharydezeeuw7779]

The fact that Perugly is faster than the laty twins is still astounding to me

[@FierceGalactaKnight]

I've always thought that the speed stat better represent reaction and attack speed, not movement speed. That way Latios/Latias can fly faster, even if Purugly moves first in battle

[@simonastron555]

it's faster than garchomp and garchomp can go mach 1

I remember Mars' Purugly in DPPt, who was only difficult because your Pokémon was not fully evolved. It's like beating up a school bully after taking self-defense training.

[@supernova9014]

Funnily enough, Mars' Purugly's difficulty even more artificial than just Purugly's base stats. Her level 16/17 purugly is illegal, as Glameow doesn't evolve until level 38. Jupiter's Skuntank also has a less pronounced version of this where her Skuntank illegally knows Night Slash at level 20 before it could possibly learn the move. Truly, the most heinous acts of Team Galactic.

We were all surprised by its speed, but I'm more surprised by the other stats. You'd expect it to be a bit stronger, since its apparently part tiger, or bulkier since, well, its fat. I guess fighting against it before level 20 makes a big difference in perspective.

[@dustymcwari4468]

Maybe the fat doesn’t help it defensively because it’s just a flabby kind of fat, not a hardened belly type fat like Snorlax or Slaking And makes sense because this Pokémon is all about making you think it’s something it’s not, it grips it’s own torso with its forked tail to push the fat to the sides like a corset to make itself seem strong and bulky, and it’s speed stat can take some people by surprise because they don’t expect this chunky cat to be quick on its feet xd

I've always seen Speed in Pokémon to be Speed in Battle, not overall speed. That's why even tho Latias and Latios are faster than Purugly, they are not in game. Think about it, the battles take places in small stadiums, so a tiny cat has much more ways to move around it than a biological plane, since they would need a lot of space to reach their maximum speed. Same way a squirrel would be much faster than an f1 car if they were to race in a narrow and short location

[@nerddwarf]

Speed is defined as the ability to move the body in one direction as fast as possible. Agility is the ability to accelerate, decelerate, stabilize, and quickly change directions

[@awesometoadultimate8562]

Hot take: Glameow definitely should be earlier in Sinnoh then it is, since you can't get it until after the fifth gym when its counterpart, Stunky, can be found right after the second. Additionally, Glameow should evolve at like Level 28 over 38. Also, I think the reason why Purugly's stats aren't good is so that the first fight against Mars isn't too hard, because people says it's already decently challenging.

[@sumansaxena2277]

Or maybe just I don't know buff it?

[@matthewroberts198]

I agree with everything you just said ('specially since I'm playing Shining Pearl and recently got Glameow). And that last point I feel is the same reason Onix and later Steelix don't have higher Atk stats. If Onix was the first Gym Leader's Pokemon it definitely could have been stronger.

[@iantaakalla8180]

So Purugly is weak for the same reason Onix is weak?

[@GardeniaCreations]

Interesting note: Purugly is one of the few Pokémon capable of the Fake Out + Last Resort combo, similar to the superior Ambipom and Mega Loppuny.

[@faletepower694]

Purugly is the perfect case for a Pokémon made specifically for an ingame bossfight (Commander Mars in DPP). It's stupidly fast to not be outsped, its defenses are good for the level (16 IIRC) and 84 base attack is (again, at Lv16) super good. I love this kind of Pokémon (Torkoal and Slaking are some that come to my mind), and I'm ok if they're not competitively viable. It will always be remembered for being a Nuzlocke run killer.

[@oliviahughes3158]

It's so weird. It's a fully evolved pokemon that evolves at level 38, but because it's the ace pokemon of a boss character you fight near the beginning of the game, they had to basically neuter it's stats so Mars wouldn't be an overpowered fight. It's fat, so you'd assume it's bulk to at least be decent, it's partly based on a Tiger, and it's Pokedex entry highlights it's aggressive nature, meaning you'd expect it to hit harder. It was given a higher attack to presumably give it a reason to justify using it over Persian who has almost everything else Purugly has but better, but they gave the latter Technician anyway to make up for the difference.

Most people who think Purugly is bad just have missed the biggest thing it has, Hone Claws! Defiant is nice, but Purugly is one of a ridiculously tiny amount of Pokemon that have a way to raise their accuracy while having a sleep move like Hypnosis. If you can get a single Hone Claws off, Hypnosis is 80 accuracy, with two boosts, it's a guaranteed sleep coming off from a 112 speed stat and with the sleep, it can set up further since it gets free turns! With Sash you are pretty much guaranteed to get at least one HC off, but even without it, if you can somehow increase the odds of the first Hypnosis hitting (eg: Gravity), you can easily snowball fights!
